Problem with WinUSB ReadPipe

[Christian R.]

Dear all,

we are using VirtualBox (5.1.22) for some testing of our USB based measurement device. The device uses the Windows built-in WinUSB driver.
On native Windows all works fine, but in Windows Guest (tried Windows 7 and 8.1 for now) we got a problem while using the WinUSB_ReadPipe function.
If data is available on the device, all works OK. But if no data is (yet) available and the function is used with timeout, the IN pipe becomes unusable after return with timeout elapsed. This is permanent and cannot be reset unless the device is unplugged. ResetPipe, FlushPipe, AbortPipe and even reconnect does not help in this case.
Is this a known issue?

Thanks and best regards,
Christian

@Christian R.
Did you manage to solve your problem with device that use WinUSB? Probably I have the same issue.

Yes, we solved the problem by using VM Ware player
